22 Top Asian Snacks in NYC | Eater NY

"Filipino food is still a rarity in Manhattan, but this no-frills Filipino grocer in the East Village stocks a wide array of dry snacks and goods needed for home cooking, along with ready-to-eat dishes. An affiliate of Johnny Air, a company that ships between NYC and the Philippines, the market offers the likes of traditional pan de sal (salt bread), corned beef, and frozen longanisa sausage. For a beginner’s taste of Filipino snacks, there are Skyflakes crackers, a pantry essential in Filipino households, and chicharrones, or pork rinds." - Dan Q. Dao
